A History Lesson on Israeli-Palestinian Relations

The Jewish World Review published an article written by Cal Thomas that is a history lesson on Israeli-Palestinian peace talks. It begins with the Balfour Declaration in 1917 and follows the various attempts that have been made in the name of peace up to the present. Thomas’ article is titled “Pointless Talks” which is quite apropos when reading the account of the past peace negotiations and the results. The only things that have changed between Israelis and Palestinians are the weapons.

It is foolish to hide the truth. Israel’s right to exist has always been at the heart of things. The issues of borders, blockades, settlements and other disagreements are small in comparison to annihilation. It is with this fear that Israeli Jews believe that they will never be safe, and it is always in the minds of their representatives when they come to the ‘bargaining table.’ Peace can only come when the Arab world recognizes their enemy is within, in the Koran and Mohammed’s teachings of hatred towards Jews, Christians and other Infidels and they categorically renounce those beliefs.
